OK. Fine. Maybe. Whats it worth to you to have been:
1 Denied legal counsel
2 a zero on one assignment (dont know the effect it had on his GPA, but it was negative. avg 100 + 100 + 0 etc)
3 A "disciplinary note" that may follow you around for life.
Spiteful? ABSOLUTELY!!!!! I Dont blame him.
"Yes, the disciplinary action was crazy"
Crazy is as crazy does.
"disciplinary action" For having done nothing wrong.
Screw em, hit em hard and make them think twice, or better yet, get the bean counters to force legal to adopt best practices to avoid this kind of legal action in the future.
They just dont get it:
We are happy to see that a major music vendor has made a decision to lower his price substantially, because it's what the customer wants today if we are going to see a viable CD business," Trans World Entertainment CEO Bob Higgins said.
"viable CD business" Poor Poor Bobby. Dont they see that the plastic disk is going the route of the 8-track, LP, and cassette?
:(Quiet playing of taps in the background):
Hey Bob, the future of your industry will become more promotion, and touring, hence a production company. Giving away music for free to promote the band and get ppl into shows. Thats where the money is. That is where the future is going.
Hold on... I haven't bought a CD in years, but at $6, I might actually 'sleep with the enemy' and get a disk I might really like...
or
I stopped buying CDs because of the label's immoral behavior, and will only resume if they fix that. $6-10 dollars is still $6-10 dollars they will spend on suing teenagers and grandmothers, publishing bogus reports, and paying politicians to pass draconian legislation.
My lunches cost about that much. I would buy CD's at that cost. Considering most CD's will have at least 6 songs on them, less than a buck a track...cmon.
“It’s very difficult I think, given the way resources have drifted from journalism to public relations over the past 30 years, to break away as much as you really want to … I guess I’m implying, the number of people who go to communications school and go into PR over the years has increased and the number in journalism has shrunk even more dramatically.”
-Chris Mitchell, editor in chief of The Australian
No s**t Chris; Really? It has been obvious for a while now that news, is "news entertainment", and nothing more. Start providing real journalism, something which if done correctly would have tremendous value. **SMACK** sorry I am daydreaming again. "Real journalism" Who am I kidding? LOL.

"you PC types"
I support Windows and OSX, in a corporate environment. I have a MAC Book Pro & G5 dual quad core.
And again, I love the MAC cult. They defend them till the bitter end. (The bitter end being paying a premium for PC hardware with an apple on it.)
All I stated is that Tablet PC's are nothing new. Motion Computing did one 5 years ago that was under an inch thick and one of the best looking Slate form factor tablets to date. It also did it from 1200 - 1400 dollars.
Kirk McElhearn's claims show just how crazy the MAC Cult is.
I just love the MAC cult. Tablets have been around for a while. I have a motion Computing M1200.Had it for 5 years now, paid 1100.00. http://www.minomech.com/ME1400.jpg
The MAC tablet will also end world hunger and pollution; it will unite shia's & Sunis, and Israelis & Palestinians. Yay!!!
Yeah right. Criminal protect criminals.
Matthew...where have you been the past 8 years? Our "laws" have been changed by, IMHO, criminals to protect their criminal cohorts.
"we all in this country are bound by those laws."
Except those who control the "laws". They change them to fit their agenda.

Thats what I do and, no I would not stay somewhere where I was not happy, or treated me wrong. Aww so sad, you could send your kid to a public school for free. Even better, move somewhere less expensive. You CHOOSE to live in Manhattan. You CHOOSE to send your kid to a private school.
"I can sleep well at night being a late 20something making close to $200,000 a year doing something I think is less than entirely noble"
YES, its called selling out. So you are fine with being a lair now, but by some miracle, in a few years or so you will "switch sides"?
